We live in a world that is interconnected, with blurred boundaries that challenge our thinking and open opportunities for cultural learning, complex realities, constant technological advances that stimulate our thinking and renovate our way of working. However, it is also a world where inequality, volatility and uncertainty block the possibility to climb the ladder of social mobility. Today, more than ever, our world needs interdependency and nestedness.
